Chin up champ, you'll run into more insulting things then that in your time.
My faculty and me personally have been insulted numerous times in this thread,just as a product of the discussion.

Do you realize that if everyone replied to everyone else's discomfort with "chin up", or "deallll", there would be no motivation to express any displeasure whatsoever on this forum? How retarded would it be for everyone to go to the "things that piss you off!" thread and reply "dude, life's unfair sometimes, stop complaining." A forum is just a format for people to voice their opinions, and when people are doing it in a polite manner, they shouldn't be faulted for that.

Here you can easily get jobs in advertising, news papers and journals with degree in philosophy, they like this degree in these spheres.
But it is better not to touch philosophy just for fun, it can tur out quite bad...you could become academic by doing that >_>
I almost did that and then some kind of sanity came back to me :D ...well there is always time to get my doctors degree, but I hope I will not be that foolish :D

don't worry, i'm not scared of it! i know that people that aren't aware of the things philosohpy and psychology teach you are generally happier than those that do, but i'm not gonna stay blind and just ignore it. its good to hear some other jobs that it can lead into though.

See, that's me using my ej'u'cation.

I see what you did there.
You could expand on what some of you are talking about, particularly taking and learning about Philosophy and classes that deal with the humanities. Wouldn't the ideal goal be to find a balance between both finding "answers" to life, yourself, and society alongside a job or career that can support your lifestyle and endeavors? It's not black and white because you can learn about either of the two even if you don't take classes specifically dealing with them, but for the sake of this thread it does help having a class designed for such purposes.
This basically spun off from a small discussion I had yesterday. Resume.
